Miniature kyatos, A miniature kyatos with a flat bottom and a bowl whose walls widen diagonally almost halfway up and then become vertical. Where the walls break, a sharp protrusion remains on the outer side the diameter of the upper part is smaller than the lower. The vertical handle is strongly extended upwards, attached to a protrusion on the body and to the spout, with a crossbar above the spout's edge. On the outer side the handle has a ribbon shape, then from the top widens inward with an undercut above the spout. The undercut part is decorated with engraved vertical lines. Engraved lines are also found on the bottom arranged in a grid and under the base of the handle in the shape of an X. The upper surface of the edge on the body is decorated with diagonal engravings; the lower part of the vertical walls with recessed dots. Both rows are separated by a horizontal engraved line. Early 7th century BC, Caere; vessel; height 6.3 cm, width 7.7 cm., A small shallow vessel in earthy brown tones sits against a pale gray background, showing a rounded base and straight rim with a curved handle rising from one side that forms an elongated loop with an open oval cutout; the surface of the vessel displays variations of tan, ochre, and darker brown patches with a slightly rough, weathered texture.
